I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1225 - A Pandemic!

So serious?

Landon’s throat throbbed when looking at the information before him.

Even if there were no rewards given, he would definitely solve the matter too.

The information downloaded to his brain about the virus was enough to make his entire back feel sticky with sweat. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴovelFɪre.net

The thing with this mission was that the faster he could solve it, the better for the entire world.

For now, only one empire in Romain is affected by it.

In short, the disease originated in that empire, with about 30% of its people affected.

This might look like nothing, but given another month, maybe the entire Empire might be affected in the end..

An epidemic is a disease that can spread from person to person in a location where the disease is less prevalent, and affects many individuals simultaneously.

You see… That’s an epidemic.

But a pandemic is like an epidemic, but much larger in scale.

Pandemics could affect other empires, continents and the entire world in so little time.

A merchant might travel out, carry the disease to another point, and that’s how it would catch on like wildfire.

After a few days, you realize that you’ve got cold sweats. And the nagging cough is only getting worse.

Of course by then, you play the denial game in your brain, thinking it’s a simple flu or just a discomfort of some sort.

And before you know it, your fever is off the roof, and you’ve sweated buckets and buckets, looking like a person who is either about to die or having the worst popping experience of their lives.

Your body gives up and even doing ordinary things like eating or holding up a spoon to one’s mouth seems too daunting a task to do.

You can’t control your muscles and seem to be excreting b.l.o.o.d.y watery stool onto your sheets.

It’s the worst time in your life; and to make matters worse, countless boils, warts, and hardened cysts appear all over your body, giving you nothing but agonizing pain.

You see, these b.u.mps aren’t like your regular b.u.mps. They carry infectious blackish fluid, which only feels like someone had poured a large pot of hot flaming coal on you.

Your body slowly becomes skeletal, looking like a thousand-year-old mummy.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, was the Zombie Plague.

Even though the plague could get around airborne, it was most prominent and deadly when transferred by water instead.

In short, the chances of getting the age waterborne were highly likely when compared to airborne.

That’s right. Any watery substance, from sweat, blood, purse/injury fluids, drinks, water and so on.

Once a person got affected, even their sweat would contain the virus. So imagine sweaty co-workers at the docks touching and mingling with each other all day long?

Even when making medieval drinks from smas.h.i.+ng grapes or handling food in general, one could also cause widespread contamination.

Of course, one shouldn’t forget that the virus could still be transmitted through the air. So wearing masks was also essential.

In short, there was a lot that Landon had to handle when looking at this matter.

But again, time was the key here.

Like the system had said, if he didn’t do anything, come June, 80% of the Romain Continent would be contaminated.

That meant that 80% of the 37 empires would all be affected.

And for sure, by then, the virus would’ve likely travelled to the other neighbouring continents like Tenola as well.

Now, it was just 30% of a certain empire that was affected. But in 3 more months, maybe the entire empire would’ve long been affected, and the virus would’ve already begun attacking the 5 neighbouring empires around the borders.

And that’s how an epidemic would turn into a pandemic in a heartbeat.

No! He couldn’t let that happen.

Once it got out of its primary empire, it would be so much harder to maintain.

They had to act fast!

~Swis.h.!.+

Landon suddenly vanished into thin air and then appeared in the system’s immaculate white s.p.a.ce.

Obviously, he wouldn’t go there with them on this matter.

Why?… Because he still has to do the matter of rescuing Princess Tilda from Veinitta this upcoming September.

It was already August. And after his wedding, he would take a week-long honeymoon before heading straight out with the soldiers to start the rescue mission.

He would like for the team of doctors, nurses and military officials to leave, at most by September 1st.

They had a lot to prepare and would take their time getting any needles, medications or general supplies that they would use once there.

You know, they would find patients, test with the equipment they brought, and so on.

Also, they had to determine how to purify the water sources, come out with vaccines, etc.

In short, this Zombie plague would take a while to treat.

Their first priority was quarantining everyone and handling matters professionally.

Of course since his last rewards, he had also been teaching all the medical knowledge he knew.

So the team of people selected should be able to handle the task too.

Again, over the last few years, they had handled countless situations all around Pyno. So they were somewhat skilled at observing under microscopes, a.n.a.lyzing data, researching, testing and solving issues.

Thinking about it more, Landon felt like the medical people were up to the task and would be able to crack the code and create the suitable vaccine for the job.

And if they couldn’t, then after saving Tilda, he would head over and ?ssist them too.

But the most important thing is to stop the spread and quarantine the affected. Even the corpses shouldn’t be handled carelessly too.

Hmhm.

No matter what, the Zombie plague must not be allowed to spread!
